                                         LETTER 7-7: THANK YOU FOR REFERENCE
                   Predating this contact with Professor Price, this jobhunter wrote him to ask whether or not
                   he would serve as a reference for her. That letter appears in Chapter 9. (See Letter 9-1.)








                               Professor James Price
                               Economics Department
                               State University
                               University City, MO 09876

                               Dear Professor Price:
                               I owe you dual thanks. First, for serving as a
                               reference for me to aid in my job search, and second,
                               for your kind words.
                               I have just heard from John Brunswick at St. Louis
                               Federal, and Leslie Rubin at the South County Credit
                               Union. They both informed me that you offered high
                               praise of my work and my attitude.
                               As a result of your recommendations, I have been
                               invited to join South County’s training program. I
                               should learn my status at St. Louis Federal shortly,
                               and you can be certain that I will contact you as
                               soon as I receive this decision.
                               So, for your dual role in my search, I thank you
                               once, and I thank you again.
                               Fondly,



                               Jennifer Lawrence
